Hi, 
1. ensure browser is not picking up an old login form image.  I always
place a small 'timer' on every form page so I can see the servers time
stamp.  Use a html object and place date/time into it. 
2. ensure that any 'old' forms are 'closed' if you use jump from one
form to another.
3.BWS has a timeout, so does the intrabuilder server - check both
values.
4.look at error.htm in intrabuilder/server dir. It is used to indicate
alerts to a browser - I have modified this to link back to the projects
homepage.
5.You could make the browser check for new versions of pages every
startup/lookup -but this may be unacceptable.
6 goodluck
Dan.
